The SLM10 is an AZ series solid body electric guitar model introduced by Ibanez for 2019. It is the first Ibanez signature model for American guitarist Scott LePage of the instrumental rock band Polyphia. It was produced in Indonesia as part of the mid-tier Premium line.

The SLM10 features a quilted maple top on an American basswood body bolted to a one-piece roasted maple neck with a roasted maple fingerboard with 22 stainless steel frets, pearloid dot position markers and luminescent side dots. Components include DiMarzio pickups mounted in a black pickguard with a custom IGNO humbucker at the bridge and True Velvet single-coils in the neck and middle positions, a T1502 two-point synchronized tremolo bridge, a Graph Tech TUSQ nut, an angled output jack, Gotoh locking tuning machines and Sure Grip knobs.

A new model for LePage, the KRYS10 was introduced in late 2022.

The SLM10 was discontinued after 2022
